The new 5-series is a beautiful car with the most amazing technology on board, but to go from a 4.4 V8 to a 4 cilinder diesel... Nah...

Good luck on your decision though, and if you do choose to order the 5, enjoy and post your experiences!!
well my major reason to change car a) the X5 is aging, it was a 2004, and b) i live in a city where avg speed is 15km/h but there are few times during weekends and at nights when the roads are free, but I get too tired now a days to go out and enjoy... also a new X5 would cost me nearly $560000 because of the tax increase on imports over 2 liter so hence the 520d is 2 liter and falls on the 210% import duty so its coming to roughly $160+- with all options etc.... will keep you guys posted ....
